Cask at the Great British Beer Festival 2016, day 2 - London. Pours clear gold with a frothy, white head. Juicy hope in the nose, modest pale bread. Light to medium sweet flavour, fresh citrusy hops. Light bodied with fine carbonation; good condition. Lightly resinous finish, nips of tangerine, melon, orange. Nice one.

Big commanding bold looking IPA pale pour with a slight haze. The head is quite commanding and, so is the commanding taste; big commanding rubbery feel, fer-sher. Commandeering kick in the jaw. Commandingly difficult. JMHO Real bitter commanding BS. Funny, the nose is not so commanding, its simple light hop olfactory perfume. But hey: When I taste it, its a smack-ah-roo, commanding whew; as it smacks the palate. So much hop commanding green rotting grapefruit rind juice in this one. And, guess what? Its mixed with a bit of commanding fresh pine tar sap. What else can be commandingly said? Commanding? Eye, eye, captain commander. Just another one of one a meggah IPA out there. Is there such a prefix for a unit MIPA, ?.... or, is it jiggah like GIPA? Like flux capacitor, LOL - heheheh - giggah, WTF. Even keel there, sir. 3 times ten to the power of 12 IPA now available out there? 1TIPA. Terra IPA !

(Can, 0.355 l - canned on 15.10.2019, from Alko, 20200221) The beer poured amber and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had tangerine, oranges and pineapple. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were pine, pineapple, oranges, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. A decent hoppy brew with soft bitterness.

Can from Systembolaget. Hazy golden with a white head. Aroma and taste of hops, citrus, grapefruit and grass. The finish was quite bitter. Not bad but felt a bit old.

Amber, a bit hazy colour, medium-sized off-white head. Strong pine in the nose with some resin. Medium-bodied. Pale malts, a bit of caramalt, pine, spruce and resin in the flavour. Old skool style, tasty easy IPA. Solid.
